Arqueología de la Arquitectura, founded in 2002 and coedited by Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC, Madrid) and la Universidad del País Vasco-Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea (UPV-EHU, Vitoria-Gasteiz), is a scientific journal, in electronic edition, with the main objective of promoting, hosting and disseminating archaeological studies of buildings, regardless of their period, type and function. It addresses theoretical, methodological, interpretative and practical aspects of the archaeological discipline applied to the analysis, documentation, interpretation, conservation, restoration, enhancement and socialisation of architecture; of its contribution to the knowledge of the history of architecture and of the related technical, social and historical contexts; its relationship with other human, earth and experimental sciences (e.g. archaeometry and geology, among others); its potential as a tool for knowledge and discussion; and its use by professionals in archaeology, architecture, restoration, engineering and art history, among other heritage specialists. In short, it intends to become an instrument of permanent renewal and reflection on the materiality of present and past architectures.
